    As a more velumptuous lady myself, seeing you playing Veronica (and Wednesday for that matter) was unbelievably affirming. It's one of the few times I've seen someone shaped like myself in a musical, and they were both women who knew their own mind, got what they wanted and could sing the f'ing house down.
    Please remember that for every troll are 10 people feeling uplifted at seeing someone like themselves.

      Yep, I will never forget Carrie's Dead Girl Walking. It was so unbelievably moving to see someone with a similar body type to my own commanding such an unapologetically powerful and sexy scene. Seeing a range of body types onstage is so important :)

      Yeah! As someone who is also in theatre with a bigger body type and wants to pursue it professionally it’s so inspiring to watch Carrie who’s an amazing person and actress succeed!

    Oh no! I'm so sorry you went through such turmoil when playing Veronica in Heathers! Honestly, your powerhouse performance, the vibe from whole cast and being in such a fun environment sparked my love for musical theater. It was an absolute joy to experience and hope you can look back on it with fondness now. Iconic. 👑

    I'm so glad that you mention the fact of 'having a life outside the theatre' as a dresser and wardrobe person who oftens tours or stays to one venue, I know to well what you mean when you feel like you have to be a nun for a bit, eight shows a week is tough and you certainly can feel tied to that one place without the energy or spoons to head outside/explore the city/live socially/drink etc. Thank you for exploring your roles so honestly and without completely ripping yourself apart over what was and what will never be again x

      I adore the 2018 performance! You and Jamie were made to be the perfect Veronica and J.D duo! Pretty upset I didn’t know about Heathers then, as I would have LOVED to see it live. But that’s okay! I kid you not, when I first started getting into Heathers, I listened to your cover of Dead Girl Walking on repeat all day, just because you sounded so beautiful!
      (It’s my favourite song, I love the chorus’ rhythm and tempo)
      Love you, loved the cast, loved your Veronica Vlogs, and love your other content!

    Hey Carrie! I saw you in the fabulous Crown Jewels this week, I’m not sure what I found funnier… the actual show or the two people sat next to me arguing about whether you all were playing more than one character each. We weren’t that far away but the lady wasn’t having it from anybody that you had multiple roles!! 😂😂
    Fantastic show, I loved it. 🥳

    I think the more positive Veronica comments after the role were a lot of fans who YOU introduced the show to! You were my Original Veronica and I loved the way you did it- I think the first version you get introduced to will always be people’s favourite version, so just remember how many people LOVE your version! ❤

    Carrie! I know cinderella was an incredibly challenging experience and it shows how strong you all were but i wanted you to know, your performance of Cinderella really effected me in the best way. It taught me so much and it was the first time i saw a character on stage and said "thats me" and i am now singing i know i have a heart for my singing exam. So thank you for that incredible performance even when times are tough ❤

  • @RaeCharm
    @RaeCharm 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +33

    Given how many decently popular videos (as far as musical theater videos are ever popular) have been made about ALW's Cinderella/Bad Cinderella, I'm thrilled to hear you talk about it even just a little yourself. You're professional as always, but I do think it's important to hear at least a little of your current feelings as people on the outside are deconstructing and analyzing it.

  • @lel1160
    @lel1160 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +13

    it must have been so hard to jump on the heathers train with such a passionate fanbase, but you seemed (at least from where i'm standing) to handle it with such poise and grace, as well as the best attitude ! those veronica vlogs are such a source of joy honestly, i still go back and watch every now and then !

  • @emilyrobertson221
    @emilyrobertson221 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +44

    I had never been emotionally affected by hearing “I Dreamed A Dream” until I saw you as Fantine in the concert version and witnessed your portrayal of her. I had never cried at that song until I heard you sing it and something resonated so deeply within me that I found myself in floods of tears during that scene. So no matter what others might have said at stage door, I want to thank you for playing Fantine because I never truly connected with her story until I saw you play her. ❤

    • @allicatviii
      @allicatviii 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I thoroughly agree. I Dreamed a Dream is so iconic I think I had got a bit jaded by it, but seeing Carrie treat the song and story of Fantine in her own way completely changed the way I see that character. I've seen Carrie perform twice live in roles I'm familiar with (Fantine and Beth in War of the Worlds) and I can confidently say she brought a new perspective to each character that made me see them a little differently. Superb performances, both 👏

  • @beltingtokra
    @beltingtokra 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +41

    Jo in Little Women would be the only other role i can think of as demanding energy, vocally and emotionally as Veronica. I mean, Elle as someone else mentioned, and Elphaba for sure, but Jo is such a rollercoaster and a dream role im determined to do before im too old for it 😂

    • @rorycharlesworthington
      @rorycharlesworthington 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I'd also say Katherine Howard in Six - none of the queens really leave the stage, they all sing backup for eachother and have that crazy energetic chorey, then on top of that K Howard has the longest and most emotional song in the show, where you have to play realising trauma every show.

  • @BeckyDomeyer

    @BrennaMorningstar 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +35

    So sad that Cinderella was such a hard job. It's been the only one I've managed to make it out to London for, being a Belgian girl, and hearing you sing live felt life changing. I hope to see you perform in many more shows and hopefully those will bring you more joy than Cinderella ever did.

    The way I KNEW Wednesday and Eponine would be your top two!! This was such a great video!! The way you speak about Cinderella is so respectful after what happened I could never 😂 You and that cast went through some things for real!!

  • @LillySty
    @LillySty 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +17

    Ooooh I have so much to say!
    1. My local theatre is doing The Addams Family Musical (in German) and I'm going to the premiere in two weeks. I am so excited to see it but also scared of the translation.
    2. I was blessed to be able to see you in the full production of Les Mis as Fantine! In January 2020, on my birthday, I flew to London to see you and I bawled my eyes out. You were absolutely fantastic as was everyone else in that cast, I've never seen so much talent on one stage.
    3. I may or may not have seen the slime tutorial of Heathers. I know you were not well when this was filmed and it was your last (?) performance so emotions were heightened, but even if this wasn't your best, you were still incredible. I cannot believe anyone could do that.
    4. I'm glad you talk so openly about Cinderella. As an outsider, I admire how the cast and crew held together and even though the public knew very little about it while it was happening, everyone was very civil about it when it finally came to light. You were mistreated and I hope that this is a wake up call for the responsible party to change their way. I for one will no longer be supporting them.
    5. This is an incredible set of roles to have successfully played. I am very much looking forward to everything that is to come.
    That's it. That's my rant.

    Loved the way you ranked these! I love that you have played a huge variety of roles especially ones that people wouldn’t necessarily expect you to play. Songs from CCC still randomly pop into my head! I always look forward to hearing of your next project as I love watching you take on new things and I know, like all your previous roles, you’ll absolutely smash them. I’d like to see your Elphaba! And just so you know, your version of I dreamed a dream is my absolute favourite and my mums! 🫶🏻

    • @Carrie

    @rinalias8223 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Man I love seeing these sorts of videos from you where you talk about your jobs all together because I love seeing how the list grows and how many new experiences you get to tell to your audience. It’s so exciting watching you go into new productions and being introduced to all of these shows I probably wouldn’t have turned a blind eye to otherwise 🥰
    I’ll never forget any of the shows I’ve managed to see when you’ve been in the cast which started with Chitty when I was only roughly 10 :’)
    With the Heathers fan base opinions suddenly changing I think I have somewhat of a theory because I very much remember the initial distaste and being so upset about it because I was so excited about the cast (I saw it in the hay market when I was just 12 and I have never before nor since been so happy. I’m 17 now and saw the show again recently and sobbed!)
    But I feel like because a lot of vlogging was done backstage and there was so much social media presence for that cast particularly on your videos that it might be easier for people to feel attached to your cast in sort of a parasocial way? Mixed with nostalgia and parts of the uk bootleg going viral (I’m looking at you, meant to be yours) it must’ve just boosted the overall public opinion
    Nowadays people go absolutely nuts over your cast of heathers and rightfully so! 😌
    Strange how these things happen

    Carrie we came down to London to see you in Heathers but saw Olivia make her debut instead as you were unwell (she was incredible btw) but wasn’t you! So we came down from Yorkshire to see Heathers again and you were just fabulous. The way you sing, the power, the feeling made a 54 yr old cry much to my daughter’s dismay. Never doubt yourself or the way you can make an audience feel about music, the story and themselves 😘

I love getting to hear you reflecting on your roles, you always have unique tidbits or stories - are you considering going back to your showverview series someday?

      Fantine might get little stage time as herself but you then get to be in the ensemble and hide in the back in the barricade and that makes it SO much fun! Glad you guessed the rest! ♥️ Yes I will definitely return to the Show-Verview series! 100%!

    I *loved* the video! One of the things I've always most admired about you is how you seem to completely defy the type-casting stereotypes, playing characters which are entirely different and SMASHING IT every time. It was wonderful to see you reflect on your performances and wonderful to hear that even _The Show Which Shall Not Be Named_ can be smiled at now. I hope that whatever roles you may play in the future will tick as many of the boxes as possible!! (And as one of the biggest ever fans of your Veronica I'm am SO sorry for any negativity recieved during your run; you were incredible and you shone despite the challenges the role provided) ❤

    As someone who lives in Australia who doesn't get to see you in really any shows I'm just glad I got to see you at least once in a show even if Cinderella wasn't your favourite experience. At least you have the friends from that time that's a positive. Can't wait to see what's ahead in the future for you Carrie

    I’m so happy you placed Wednesday as the top. She’s the only role I have been lucky enough to witness you play (hall for Cornwall) I had not long had a c- section having my twin boys and nothing was going to stop me being able to see you on the stage. You were the reason I was going after all- turned out to be one of the best shows I’ve ever seen! You’re such a talent! And honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if you was in wicked one day!!
    Congratulations on your wonderful news also Mama xx

    It’s such a shame Cinderella was ruined for you by the higher ups 😢 It’s one of mine and my husband’s favourite musicals we’ve ever seen. We managed to see it 7x and I will treasure my program that yourself and several of the cast members signed at stage door. We still listen to the soundtrack now! Yourself and all the cast were amazing. We were gutted when the closure was announced.

    Ahh, this is an awesome video! A brilliant way to structure them all. There was a warmth around your time as Eponine and Wednesday which I'll never forget - a special time for you and a special time in the history of both shows. Your take on Veronica was phenomenal (and it's mad that you were dealing with so much negativity when performing what are now some of the most incredible versions out there!), but I think we were all just pleased that you left the show in one piece!!
    What an amazing ten years 🎶

    I watched you in the Crown Jewels, you were out of this world, every single note you sung was perfection, you were so nice outside the stage door, I treat the Heathers Notebook that you signed that day as if it’s the most valuable thing I own (which it is).
    You are by far one of the most talented actresses I’ve ever heard, and being able to watch you in the Crown Jewels was an experience I’ll never forget

    It makes me so emotional to watch you wearing an engagement ring. I think about little 13 year old me sitting in her bedroom watching you make "fairy fails" videos, in front of your bookshelf, and watching you sing "boys in books are better." I'm 22 now and I feel like an eternity has past. We've all been through so much. I love you Carrie, thanks for being there for me on my rainy days and especially now.

    Brilliant and graceful take on your very varied career so far. I was so glad I saw Caucasian Chalk Circle (by the skin of my teeth on closing night!) and that you captured one of the songs on video at least. It really was masterful and felt like an important moment for you to show what else you could do in the next phase of your life as a performer. Here’s to all your boxes being ticked many times over into the future! x

It started a wonderful tradition. I'm so sorry you had such negative comments on veronica you were incredible ❤

    Havin a life outside of theatre is actually so hard and so important. I've been an assistant director for three years now and sometimes it feels like there's no use in going home anymore between rehearsals, tech, meetings and shows. I'm thinking of changing my job because I don't have time for a private life, but at the same time it's really hard imagining working anywhere else. I just love it so much. But it has to be possible to do this job and still find time for friends and family or am I delusional?

    I think that you were part of the change when you played Veronica. And as hard as that was or is for you, I hope that knowing you became an idol for loads of people who look like you who thought they couldn’t get those roles unless they ‘get skinny’ and changed a few attitudes brings comfort to you now.
